When do you clean MFs and when are they single-use? To be clear, I'm talking about the 12x12 towels used to apply and remove sealants. For years, those were single-use. But I'm buying nicer MFs and thinking they may not be trash.

This is what I'm currently doing. Tell me what to change - I'm not a pro; just a DIY novice.
- New MFs for sealant application/removal, and leather conditioning. Each time I grab a new MF, the used one goes in a bucket with Dawn and water to keep from drying/curing. When I'm finished with the car, the MFs go in the washing machine, then air dried.
- Washed MFs - ^those^ are used for any other task where I need a clean towel; just not sealant
 
DFB did a write up on Rags to Riches by P&S and the The Rag Company.
 
I just toss them in a bin and wash at a later. I have not had an issue with them no getting clean (clogged).
 
Sometimes I have tossed mine in a bucket of warm water and 3D Towel Clean to soak, other times straight to washer. Then into the washing machine with P&S RtoR and the odd time some vinegar added to the oxi/bleach reso option. All my towels are still as good as new.
